Gone
You wanted the world
But the world didn't want you
You were too independent
It was too callous and cruel
So you picked up your head
And wandered out
All of these things
We never talk about
You wanted the freedom
That no one ever gave you
But you were young and naïve
And no one thought to warn you
So you crashed
And you burned up
In beautiful flames
What a shame
And maybe they were right
And maybe you were wrong
When you look at your life
I knew it all along
You were gone
And will we meet again
In another life
Where you don't have to
Run anymore
Be afraid anymore tonight
You don't have to be afraid anymore
You painted a picture
Of the perfect family
But when you reached
Out to grab it
It ran out of your reach
So you chased it
And chased it
And wound up here
Oh dear
You wanted perfection
So you cut out the flaws
But when you looked around
No one was left at all
You can't make
A perfect person
You can only
Learn life lessons
And maybe they were right
Or maybe you were wrong
When you look at your life
I knew it all along
You were long gone
And will we meet again
In another life
Where you don't have to
Run anymore
Be afraid anymore tonight
You don't have to be afraid anymore
But the world didn't want you
You were too independent
It was too callous and cruel
So you picked up your head
And wandered out
All of these things
We never talk about
You wanted the freedom
That no one ever gave you
But you were young and naïve
And no one thought to warn you
So you crashed
And you burned up
In beautiful flames
What a shame
And maybe they were right
And maybe you were wrong
When you look at your life
I knew it all along
You were gone
And will we meet again
In another life
Where you don't have to
Run anymore
Be afraid anymore tonight
You don't have to be afraid anymore
You painted a picture
Of the perfect family
But when you reached
Out to grab it
It ran out of your reach
So you chased it
And chased it
And wound up here
Oh dear
You wanted perfection
So you cut out the flaws
But when you looked around
No one was left at all
You can't make
A perfect person
You can only
Learn life lessons
And maybe they were right
Or maybe you were wrong
When you look at your life
I knew it all along
You were long gone
And will we meet again
In another life
Where you don't have to
Run anymore
Be afraid anymore tonight
You don't have to be afraid anymore
